<h1><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h1>
<p>The <strong>X509_PUBKEY</strong> structure represents the ASN.1 <strong>SubjectPublicKeyInfo</strong>
structure defined in <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5280.txt" class="rfc">RFC5280</a> and used in certificates and certificate requests.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_new() allocates and initializes an <strong>X509_PUBKEY</strong> structure.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_free() frees up <strong>X509_PUBKEY</strong> structure <strong>a</strong>. If <strong>a</strong> is NULL
nothing is done.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_set() sets the public key in <strong>*x</strong> to the public key contained
in the <strong>EVP_PKEY</strong> structure <strong>pkey</strong>. If <strong>*x</strong> is not NULL any existing
public key structure will be freed.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_get0() returns the public key contained in <strong>key</strong>. The returned
value is an internal pointer which <strong>MUST NOT</strong> be freed after use.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_get() is similar to X509_PUBKEY_get0() except the reference
count on the returned key is incremented so it <strong>MUST</strong> be freed using
<code>EVP_PKEY_free()</code> after use.</p>
<p>d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() decode and encode an <strong>EVP_PKEY</strong> structure
using <strong>SubjectPublicKeyInfo</strong> format. They otherwise follow the conventions of
other ASN.1 functions such as d2i_X509().</p>
<p>d2i_PUBKEY_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_fp(), i2d_PUBKEY_bio() and i2d_PUBKEY_fp() are
similar to d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() except they decode or encode using a
<strong>BIO</strong> or <strong>FILE</strong> pointer.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() sets the public key parameters of <strong>pub</strong>. The
OID associated with the algorithm is set to <strong>aobj</strong>. The type of the
algorithm parameters is set to <strong>type</strong> using the structure <strong>pval</strong>.
The encoding of the public key itself is set to the <strong>penclen</strong>
bytes contained in buffer <strong>penc</strong>. On success ownership of all the supplied
parameters is passed to <strong>pub</strong> so they must not be freed after the
call.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_get0_param() retrieves the public key parameters from <strong>pub</strong>,
<strong>*ppkalg</strong> is set to the associated OID and the encoding consists of
<strong>*ppklen</strong> bytes at <strong>*pk</strong>, <strong>*pa</strong> is set to the associated
AlgorithmIdentifier for the public key. If the value of any of these
parameters is not required it can be set to <strong>NULL</strong>. All of the
retrieved pointers are internal and must not be freed after the
call.</p>
<p>
</p>
<hr />
<h1><a name="notes">NOTES</a></h1>
<p>The <strong>X509_PUBKEY</strong> functions can be used to encode and decode public keys
in a standard format.</p>
<p>In many cases applications will not call the <strong>X509_PUBKEY</strong> functions
directly: they will instead call wrapper functions such as X509_get0_pubkey().</p>
<p>
</p>
<hr />
<h1><a name="return_values">RETURN VALUES</a></h1>
<p>If the allocation fails, X509_PUBKEY_new() returns <strong>NULL</strong> and sets an error
code that can be obtained by <em>ERR_get_error(3)</em>.</p>
<p>Otherwise it returns a pointer to the newly allocated structure.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_free() does not return a value.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_get0() and X509_PUBKEY_get() return a pointer to an <strong>EVP_PKEY</strong>
structure or <strong>NULL</strong> if an error occurs.</p>
<p>X509_PUBKEY_set(), X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() and X509_PUBKEY_get0_param()
return 1 for success and 0 if an error occurred.</p>
